Setting MIDI Channel for a Step
MIDI messages can be sent on any MIDI channel from 1 to 16 or on the global MIDI channel (value=0).
• Move the [Data Encoder] until ”M CHA“ appears in the display, then press the [Data Encoder].
• Move the [Data Encoder] to select a value from 1-16 or 0 (Global MIDI Channel) and press the [Data Encoder] to accept the change.
LED Colors
A selection of LED colors is available for each of the 10 switches ([A]–[D] and [1]–[6]). How they are used and what they mean is user-con-
figurable. By default, each color represents an assignment type (see chart below). A color can be programmed for on and off states – or in-
stead of choosing different colors you can use the same color for both on/off with the off setting dimmed (A=full illumination, b=dimmed).
• Move the [Data Encoder] until ”LED“ appears in the display and press the [Data Encoder] to select it.
• Move the [Data Encoder] to scroll through the menus in the chart below and press the [Data Encoder] to select.
• Set the Value using the [Data Encoder] and press the [Data Encoder] to set it.
